Church Lane, Plungar

An excellent opportunity to purchase a truly individual mid terraced period cottage tucked away at the heart of this highly regarded Vale of Belvoir village; offering a deceptive level of accommodation, a good level of character and features and occupying what is a relatively generous plot by modern standards, benefitting from a rear garden which extends to approximately 80 ft. in length. In addition the garden benefits from a southerly aspect and encompasses a useful part converted outbuilding which could offer additional scope for ancillary accommodation to the main house, subject to necessary consent/regulations. There is also a considerable void situated within the attic which again, subject to consents, could offer scope to expand the accommodation further and again adding potential to this interesting home.
The main accommodation extends to approximately 840 sq.ft. providing a spacious open plan living/dining room with attractive stripped wood flooring and part pitched ceiling with inset skylight and open fireplace to the main sitting room. In addition there is a kitchen with useful utility off and a ground floor cloak room. To the first floor there are three bedrooms and main bathroom.
In addition the property benefits from the majority double glazing, gas central heating and neutral decoration and is offered to the market with no upward chain.
Overall viewing comes highly recommended to appreciate both the location and accommodation on offer.
